The X Factor

surely those two must go tonight. they're so shockingly poor.

Oh god please get rid of Ray this week before I throw something at my tv.

I actually agree with Louis Walsh for once about Ray

So, will Louis be quitting again after Simon's comments tonight!


And tonight's show is really prooving how the weekly theme isn't working - Simon has some nerve criticising song choices when they are so restricted!



Re: Ray - there is some irony in the fact he's far more famous than most the Celebrity X Factor stars!

Summary of competitors tonight

Nikitta -- Karaoke, what was her original song?
Eton Rd -- Boring boyband sh*te
Robert -- Mediocre
Leona -- Vocal acrobatics for the hell of it
Macdonald Bros -- Another Journey South-type safe song choice, but will stay in due to the Scots vote
Ray - Where the f*ck did that come from? Awful! Cringeworthy dancing, costume and arrangement. And the pronunciation is STILL awful. They've found a style he fits and are now going to flog it to death
Ben - Really liked that. Nice arrangement and I like the gravelly quality to his voice
Ashley - Why?

Leona, Ben and Eton Road were the only good performances tonight. The rest were average or awful!

If Ashley and Nikita have escaped the bottom 2 I bet they will be the first people who we will be told are safe!

Ray's pronunciation isn't nearly as bad as Ashley's.

oh i hate kate thornton.

Ashley couldn't hold that tune in a bucket.

is his microphone turned on?

Unfortunately for him, it was.

God, what is Simon's problem? Well, should give the show some press over the next week!


Thank god Ashley has gone, but although I've never agreed with the judges praise of him he has certainly suffered from the theming of each show.

And it wasn't really fair having Mamma Mia perform a song sung by a contestant too - especially if Nikitta had been in the final showdown.


Anyhow, MacDonald Brothers to win - just to piss off Simon!

i'm beginning to think the public are keeping the McDonald brothers in just to take Simon down a peg or two. There can't be any other reason surely!?
